We have a problem (Follow Freeman Coop Mod)

Post by Gandorques Hikla »

The Follow Freeman Coop Mod released a new Beta (V2.8).

The aim of the Mod is on making the Singleplayer Levels playable in Coop, Racing (the player who gets to the next level first wins), and Counter Operative (Battlezone) mode.

It features Full HL² Singleplayer Coop, a Spawnkill Prevention with Spawnzones, Map Start and Map End Wait time (until all players are ready), Automatic Vehicle Creation on Spawn (in the Vehicle Chapters) with Vehicle Owning (no one can steal your vehicle), and it Includes Coop Conversions of Combine Destiny, Rock 24, Metastasis, Penetration, The Island, and Ravenholm The Lost Chapter.

I think OC now has some serious competition for the first time (You cant call Synergy a competition XD).

Nope, all they did was renaming the maps of all the mods to ff_originalnameofthemaphere so they break all the cubemaps, maybe made some modifications with mapadd or something else and put them in a mod, we can do the same and much more in oc, except the delayed mapend, mapstart and vehicle owning, but thats all codeable, either with C++ by the devs or by the community with a scripting language like lua or python, when the devs add it.
I played it, it was fun to play, but not that special.

Ya, I've been watching all the other co-op mods, I agree that's a nice list of features!
Need to get some other sp mods mapadded and ready to go, I've considered doing map adds for Rock 24 ( I wonder if they got permission, it's kind a of a Valve employee side project). Also dayhard mod I've d/l and taken a quick look (Mod website and creator is MIA), but there are alot of others. The vehicle stuff is nice as with synergy's and would be welcome to see, but it's not what I care about the most. Maps & Npc's FTW

Rock 24 was a Eidos Employee Side Project ;-)

Follow Freeman is basically just HL2DM with monsters enabled on d1_canals_x maps.

I don't develop to compete, I develop because I have fun doing it, and if even one person enjoys my work, I have succeeded.

Meh, it's ok but not all that good, I would like to what they do in an update though, atm it seams to be lacking the key points to be called a mod, for now I'll just call it a map-add pack.

I played it and they had fixed the combine manned gun thing, so I fixed it in Obsidian. Stolen Idea? Maybe :O
